After graduating from Westdale High School, he enrolled in McMaster University where he studied film. Levy made his film debut in the horror Cannibal Girls (1970). By the mid ‘80s, Levy had become a familiar face on both television and in movies, even though almost in comic supporting roles. In 1989, he began working behind the camera again, directing a special for his old partner Martin Short, and in 1992, he made his film directorial debut in the comedy Once Upon a Crime. In 1996, Levy scored a bigger breakthrough when he and Christopher Guest began writing a screenplay for the mockumentary Waiting for Guffman, a parody about a small town theater troupe. It became a surprise hit and gave Levy a comic role as stage struck dentist Allan Pearl. In 1999, Levy won another high-profile success with the blockbuster hit American Pie, in which he played the understanding but terminally non hip father of hormonally charged teenager Jim, played by Jason Biggs. He reprised the role in the sequel American Pie 2 (2001) and again in American Wedding (2003). Eugene Levy and Christopher Guest teamed up again in 2000 for the comedy Best in Show, for which they received a Best Screenplay nomination from the Writers Guild of America. Levy and Guest also co wrote and starred in another 2003 mockumentary, A Mighty Wind, a parody about '60s folk musicians who reunite for a tribute concert several years after their glory days.   Filmography: 2006 Curious George 2006 Over the Hedge 2006 For Your Consideration 2005 Cheaper by the Dozen 2 2005 The Man 2004 New York Minute 2003 Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd 2003 American Wedding 2003 A Mighty Wind 2003 Bringing Down the House 2002 Repli-Kate 2002 Like Mike 2001 Down to Earth 2001 Serendipity 2001 The Sports Pages 2001 American Pie 2 2000 The Ladies Man 2000 Best in Show 2000 The Kid 1999 American Pie 1999 The Secret Life of Girls 1998 Mad About You: Nat & Arley 1998 Almost Heroes 1996 Waiting for Guffman 1996 Multiplicity 1995 Harrison Bergeron 1995 Father of the Bride II 1994 I Love Trouble 1992 Stay Tuned 1992 Once Upon a Crime 1992 Partners 'n Love 1991 Father of the Bride 1988 Speed Zone 1987 Bride of Boogedy 1986 Armed and Dangerous 1986 Club Paradise 1984 The Last Polka 1984 Splash 1983 National Lampoon's Vacation 1983 Going Berserk 1981 Heavy Metal 1980 Nothing Personal 1979 Running 1973 Cannibal Girls   Awards: Independent Spirit Awards • 2003 Best Screenplay (Mighty Wind) • 1997 Best Screenplay (Waiting for Guffman) L.A.
